episode_0085

The ship that departed from Jo cut through the sea and arrived in Flame Country after a voyage that was long if long, and short if short.

“Wow~ Flame Country~ It’s my first time in Flame Country~”

“If it’s your first time in Flame Country, how did you go to Jo?”

“I had to rush to Jo without seeing the sights here and there in Flame Country. Because I couldn’t find out where the Hero was.”

Everyone got off the ship while having trivial conversations.

I felt the sensation of solid ground under my feet after a long time and looked around the scenery of the pier.

It’s a bit different from the atmosphere of Flame Country I felt before.

The atmosphere was still vibrant, but there was definitely a sense of incongruity within it.

“Let’s go to Sichuan quickly.”

“Okay.”

“Huh? Are you leaving already? But it hasn’t been long since we got off the ship. I think Ms. Baekryeon and Mr. Baekho will be a little tired, so wouldn’t it be okay to rest for at least a day before going?”

Lucy said in dismay.

Does she hate leaving right away that much?

However, contrary to Lucy’s expectations, Baekryeon and Baekho shook their heads and said.

“No, it’s okay. I feel like…, I’m getting a little energized because I’m stepping on the ground.”

“Me too. So you don’t have to worry.”

Baekryeon and Baekho said side by side.

They get healthier when they step on the ground….

At least in the current situation, it’s a good sign. Because it means we can leave right away.

“Then no one’s tired, right? Let’s go.”

“Hey, I’m tired? Hey? Hey~?”

“Before that, can you wait a moment?”

I was going to lightly ignore Lucy’s usual nonsense, but it was Baekho who put on the brakes.

I looked at Baekho with wonder, as he stopped me suddenly despite saying he was okay.

Instead of explaining, Baekho gestured silently and led the group.

Baekho headed to the outskirts of the village, a remote and deserted area.

“Baekho? What are you trying to talk about, calling us all the way out here?”

“It’s nothing much. But looking at your footwork, it seems that everyone here can’t keep up with your speed. And that’s probably…, the same for me now. But if you exclude yourself, wouldn’t I be the fastest among us?”

As he said that, a pure white light enveloped Baekho.

Then the light gradually grew larger and transformed into the form of a tiger that I had seen before.

Of course…, when compared to that huge size back when we fought in Baekdu, it was only about the size of a child.

Still, it was big enough to carry three women on its back.

Only then did I realize what Baekho was trying to do. He’s saying he’ll carry Baekryeon, Seollin, and Lucy on his back and chase after me.

“M-Mr. Baekho!”

“Thank you for caring about us…, but are you okay?….”

Baekho’s condition is definitely improving rapidly. But that doesn’t mean he should overdo it yet.

Baekryeon and Seollin, who knew that fact well, looked at Baekho with worried expressions.

Baekho, seeing their expressions, looked at them with an unexpectedly benevolent atmosphere, even in the form of a tiger, and nodded his head.

But at the same time, Baekho’s tail moved quietly and secretly, tickling my arm without anyone noticing.

“…Well, of course it would turn out like this.”

Knowing the meaning of this signal, I also stroked Baekho’s tail secretly, so that no one would notice.

This means he wants me to have a lot of sex with him later in secret.

When I responded according to the signal that only Baekho would know, Baekho made a rumbling sound as if he was in a good mood.

“But I’m going to run pretty hard, are you okay?”

“I don’t know what ‘hard’ means…, but I can still run. No, I feel even more energized in this form.”

That’s a relief then.

Baekho carried the other three on his back.

And then we continued running towards Sichuan.

* * *

Sichuan.

A strange energy had been swirling around this place for about a month.

The ruler of Sichuan.

After the news of the death of the head of the Tang family, Tang Seolpung, arrived in Sichuan, everyone was plunged into great sadness, but only for a moment.

Following the orders of Tang Seolryun, the young head of the family and now the new head of the Tang family, a grand funeral was held for Tang Seolpung.

Up to this point, it was a natural course of events.

But the strangeness came after that.

According to Seolryun’s orders, Sichuan was forbidden from sending anything out except for essential supplies.

Of course, entry from the outside was also blocked through thorough inspections.

“Isn’t something going to happen?”

“Shh. Be quiet, you fool. Do you not value your life?”

People had questions about this situation, but no one voiced their questions.

In this place, Sichuan, going against the will of the Tang family is a dangerous thing that could lead to being assassinated without anyone knowing.

“….”

-Shhhhh

“I guess Brother’s work is very fast.”

And inside this Tang family.

Tang Seollan, Tang Seolpung’s child and the third child, stroked her pet snake and quietly looked out the window.

It has already been a month since her brother, Tang Seolryun, returned with the news of their father’s death.

During that time, the Tang family changed very quickly.

It was as if they had been thoroughly waiting for this day and quickly took control.

“What’s the rush? What’s the hurry?”

-Shhhshhh

“You’re right. I’m sure he’s wary of the person we saw back then. But…, I don’t think he can stop that person with just this. Even though neither my sister nor I did anything for my brother, is that still not enough for him?”

For a moment, Seollan’s eyes resembled those of a snake.

“Seollan.”

“Yes, Brother. The door is open.”

It was Seolryun, who had now become the head of the family, who came to Seollan, who was talking to her pet snake.

Seolryun, who opened the door and came in, slowly walked over and looked at Seollan.

“What’s wrong? Brother?”

“There’s a place you need to go.”

“Oh my, a place I need to go…. Where should a weak woman like me go?”

“….”

Seolryun, who stared at Seollan, who was speaking with a harmless smile, said brusquely.

“It’s Cheonsan.”

“If it’s Cheonsan…, I see. So our Tang family is trying to help the Beast Alliance in the war.”

Seolryun did not answer Seollan’s words. He was just looking at her quietly.

“…Brother is planning to walk a dangerous path.”

“So, are you going to resist?”

“Of course not. Why would I resist Brother?”

But Seollan turned her gaze away from Seolryun and looked out the window again.

“But, do you know what?”

“…What do you want to say, Seollan?”

“I don’t know what Brother’s goal is…, but I don’t think it will be easily achieved.”

At the same time as those words, there was a loud bang!! along with the noisy voices of the Tang family warriors.

* * *

The third day of running and running.

We were able to reach Sichuan faster than expected.

Baekho didn’t have any particular problems in the meantime either.

However, as much as he was using his strength, the internal poison that had spread throughout his body was spreading more violently, and the number of times he wanted sex definitely increased compared to before.

I had been cumming inside Baekho every dawn for three days straight.

And so we arrived in Sichuan.

From the entrance to Sichuan, Tang family warriors were standing and checking everyone who came and went to Sichuan one by one.

“The inspection is quite thorough from the entrance.”

“Hmm…. I can see why the Salt family is wary of our Tang family.”

“Then what are you going to do?”

Baekryeon, Lucy, and Baekho, who had returned to human form, each said a word and looked at me.

I looked at Lucy, who was silently watching, and said.

“What do you want to do?”

“First of all…, I want to talk to them.”

“Then let’s talk.”

This place is Seollin’s family home.

It would be good to respect Seollin’s opinion.

Thinking so, I confidently walked towards the gate of Sichuan.

The other members were flustered by my confident appearance and chased after me.

“!”

And as if they had noticed me too, they instantly went on alert.

“Do you know me? I’m a little tired from running a long way. Can you let me in quickly? And while you’re at it, I want to see the young head of the family…, no, did he become the head of the family now? I want to see Tang Seolryun’s face too.”

“Shut up! Don’t mention the head of the family’s name so carelessly!”

“Are you Miss Seollin? This is the head of the family’s order. The order is for all Tang family members to return to the Tang family. Miss Seollin, please come quickly too.”

They reject me, but at the same time, they mention the head of the family’s order to Seollin, who is standing next to me, and tell her to come.

What should I do with these guys…. I realized that I had one good item and took out an item from my inventory.

“!”

“T, that’s….”

“Yeah. You guys know, right? It’s the Tang family head’s favor token.”

It was the favor token that I had received from Tang Seolpung himself in the past.

Tang Seolpung had said that if I showed this favor token to a Tang family warrior, anyone would help me.

It seems to be effective, as the guys who were being so strong are fidgeting and stepping back.

“It’s a legitimate favor token that I received from the former head of the Tang family, Tang Seolpung. If you are carrying on the will of the former Tang family head, Tang Seolpung, then you should treat me, who has the favor token, accordingly.”

At my natural words, the Tang family warriors looked at each other with expressions of not knowing what to do.

“Aren’t you going to move?”

“Tch….”

I can’t help it.

I put the favor token back into my inventory.

Instead, I took out the Holy Sword.

“Ding ding, the train has left.”

“T, train?”

“What does that mean….”

“The next station is Trap, Trap Station. There are no doors to get off.”

Shwaa, Kwaaaang!!!!
